About the new anime season and excluding most sequel/leftover seasons,

Juuni Taisen - "generic" battle royale, but it's dope because Nisio Isin. I love it. It goes to show that a good writer can make quality goods out of anything. A minor detail, if you want to gloss over Themed around the chinese zodiac. For the rabbit character, you'd think the character design would typically be a charming pretty cosplay girl, but instead, it's a hypermasculine dude with bulging muscles covering every inch of his body, wearing a skimpy stripper's bunny cosplay. I found it hilarious, and I think it's poking fun at the fate series for consistently subverting the gender of characters

As much as I love the fate series, Aprocypha feels like questionable fanfic. I've been keeping up with it, but I'm left with no expectations that it has anything in store to amaze me. I kinda had a hunch that it wasn't going to be that good, but the fate hype train is too strong. Speaking of lessons never learned, there's going to be another fate series in the winter season, but Shaft, my favorite studio, will be doing it.

Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryokou, or Girls' last tour - It's a comfy SoL in a postapocalyptic setting. Usually, the tone is contrary to the setting and matches typical comfy SoL without being saccharine, and occasionally the tone reflects the setting in an intentionally jarring way. Its neat.

Houseki no Kuni, or Land of the Lustrous - A tiny society of sentient, immortal gems, under threat of a different society/species that wants to capture them? Some sci-fi stuff, but I think storywise, it's going for a coming of age story. A cast of a bunch of girls and an elder/leader guy, though they're technically genderless. Entirely CGI, some fitting, some feels abnormal. I'm interested.
